But God's not finished. He's waiting around to be gracious to you. He's gathering strength to show mercy to you. God takes the time to do everything right—everything. Those who wait around for him are the lucky ones. Isaiah 30:18 (MSG)

3 months waiting to do a PET scan and find out if the stem cell transplant my husband underwent has removed all trace of cancer.

91 days of praying that this scan will be clean.

2184 hours trying not to think of “what if’s” and unknowns.

131 040 minutes hoping that cancer is part of our history, not our future.

Sometimes I am tired of waiting.

Done with everything. Over waiting for medical results. Frustrated that I don’t know when this whole cancer treatment thing will end.

Sometimes I feel finished.

Which is why I loved discovering this verse about how God is not finished.

God isn’t done with me, he isn’t over waiting on me to trust him or tired that I keep revisiting the same worries all the time.

I'm Wendy and I'm learning to love well, run well and read well. I write for anyone who has ever held a loved one’s hand through illness, or believed in God despite hard circumstances or ever left on a spontaneous 2-week holiday through a foreign land with just a backpack.

I'm learning to love well, run well and read well. I’m married to Xylon - a man who talks non-stop about cycling - and makes me laugh. I write for anyone who has ever held a loved one’s hand through illness, or believed in God despite hard circumstances or ever left on a spontaneous 2-week holiday through a foreign land with just a backpack.
